Spring … finally …

Oh joyous day! Spring has finally arrived in Finland and about bloody time, it’s the middle of April after all. Today is a sweltering +8°C and the sun is beaming down. Of course the place is still covered in snow (the young fella is out in the sand-slash-snow pit making sand-slash-slush castles) but at least the roads are clear and the snow is melting everywhere else. It’s not warm enough yet to ditch the winter clothes but at least things are moving in the right direction. Hopefully it’ll be a short spring and we’ll get summer early … badly needed after the long winter.

  1. I suppose there’s no point in telling you how depressed I got looking at the people swimming in the sea in southwestern France when I was looking at the surfcams from Lacanau and Biarritz, is there?

  2. No, no point! :)

  3. We had a fantastic week until yesterday. Toady it’s been grey, dull and wet and the same will be for Easter and Easter Monday (it’s still holiday over here)…
    Yesterday we had over 22 degrees, today just 12. Somewhere else in Italy they’re already swimming in the sea!
    Happy Easter!

  4. 22??? Perfect!
    Happy Easter to you to!
